[Christ presenting to their view]
Thou bringest certain strange things to, &c.
—xvii. 20.
Christ presenting to their view
Their resurrection here,
Setters forth of doctrines new
We to the wise appear:
Things astonishing we tell
By vain philosophy untaught,
Love incomprehensible,
And souls redeem'd for nought!
Their resurrection here,
Setters forth of doctrines new
We to the wise appear:
Things astonishing we tell
By vain philosophy untaught,
Love incomprehensible,
And souls redeem'd for nought!
The stupendous things of God
To guilty man we show,
Testify the grace bestow'd
Which every soul may know;
News we bring of cancell'd sin
From Him, whose love is unconfined,
Nothing can His mercy mean
But life—for all mankind!
